The Jersey City parents of two children — a 5-month-old and a 1-year-old — have been charged with several counts of child endangerment and child abuse after police discovered the children by themselves Saturday in a garbage strewn, sweltering basement apartment on Fulton Avenue, according to a criminal complaint.

Prior to their appearance at CJP, Hudson County Superior Court Judge Joseph Isabella set Thompson’s bail at $200,000 and White’s at $100,000. They were also ordered not to have any contact with their children. The Department of Child Protection & Permanency took custody of the children, officials said.

According to the complaint, White and Thompson engaged in a loud and physical domestic dispute in front of the children.

A person at the Fulton Avenue house saw Thompson leave the building, and then saw White go outside, where she "continued drinking," according to the complaint.

Knowing the children had been left alone, the person called authorities, the complaint states.

When Jersey City police arrived they saw White outside, holding a rag to her bloody nose, the complaint states.

Inside the basement apartment, police and state workers found the two children alone, asleep in a bed. There was no light in the basement, garbage was strewn around the floor, and there was no ventilation in the room on one of summer’s hottest days, according to the complaint.

When officers interviewed White, she told them she "did not recall leaving the children in the basement," the complaint states.

As part of the child abuse charges, the complaint states the parents "failed to provide proper food, and maintain a clean and proper home." Officials could not say yesterday afternoon how long the children were in the basement by themselves.

According to officials, the Hudson County Special Victims Unit along with the U.S. Marshals Task Force arrested the parents at their home yesterday morning.
